AFTER THE WINTER.

fter the Winter is passed and over
land Summer is seeking the swift-fOwn
Spring.
fter the blossoms are blown on the
clover
And famed all day by the bees light
wing,
What shall we do with the love that we
played at
Under the tremor of ballroom light,
When you, in your satin and pearls ar
rayed, at
VIII reigned supreme, the queen OF the
night?
Where shall we bury it, now that it's
ended?
A seasons too long for a love play to
live
a love that I knew well you never in
tended
A efcgle wild throb of perfection to
give.
Oh, you and may but trifle with pas
sion,
And sip not taste of it's keen, strong
wine;
l may but dream that mold and fash
Your heart to beat with love like
mine.
Love that is more than a sweet hours
dreaming
Oweth 10 place in a world like ours,
Where there is only wan, cold seeming,
Shamed by the warm, true blush of the
flowers.
And yeti love thee, as well thou know
est,
Although thy love was Winters play;
Ard my heart is with thee, wherever thou
gOest,
Fen to the far dusk ends of the day.

Free Hint for q Fortune.

There's fortune awaiting the man
who will open hasty pudding eating
houses in New York city," said an old
hotel man, ''and IL I was young I'd do
it. Old New Workers remember Parker
very well. He opened a cozy little res
taurant on Dey street forty odd years
ago. At that time there was more travel
to New York by the night boats ON the
Sound and Hudson river proportional;y
than now, and Parker's place was very
convenient for travellers to get their
breakfast. He always had q blazing fire
in CRATE, and the morning papers were
at hand. Parker was the first restaurant
keeper here to give his customers the
papers while they waited.
"He made a speciality of buckwheat
cakes, and no man in the city before or
since ever made such cakes. He expert
mented and had recipe of his own. The
cakes were light, yet substantial, round
at the bottom of the plate, crisp but not
greasy, and preserved just enough of the
peculiar favor Of the buckwheat. Park
er's buckwheats became famous, and he
made a very large fortune. He built a
place on the North river, and was worth
million when be died. There's some
consolation in earning million and feel
ing that every penny of it represented a
delightful equivalent.

The celebration of the Centennial
Of the Constitution was the most
marked event of the century. The
three days, set apart for its obser-
vance, were kept as holiday by the
million aud quarter inhabitants of
Philadelphia, and the additional
quarter at million that poured in
to the city from all parts af the I'm.
ion. Noevent ever brought togeth.
er so many people within the same
time. The programme was success.
full carried out, and if we except an
occasional failure to be on time,
there was not a hitch anywhere.
The Industrial parade was a marvel
of its kind. Gotten up without re-
gard to cost, and elaborate in its de.
tails, 1t was probably the best repre-
sentation of the trades and occupa-
tons the country had ever seen. 1t
was panorama, likewise, of the
handicraft for the century just clos
ed. 1t is seldom a civic display is
watched with such interest, for
hours, by so many people. The mill
tary parade, on Friday, was the fin.
est we have had since the war, and
probably the grandest display of
soldiery we have ever had in the
time of peace. The troops, estima-
ted at 10000, came from half the
States; those from Maine marching
with those from California and Geor.
gia with Iowa. The rear of the long
column was closed up with the veter.
ans of the Grand Army of the Re.
public, men who had riSked life and
limb that the Constitution might live.
The small representation from the
regular army and navy exhibited
the high state of dicipllne of these
arms of the public service. The
marching was good and the music
splendid. The performance, on Sat.
urday, was the most imposing of all.
The literary exercises, in Indepen-
dence Square, were of a character
that cannot be forgotten. On no
other stage, since the country was
settled, have there been gathered so
many great men-great in all walks
of life, headed by the President and
Chief Justice. The able addresses,
the ravishing music, the distinguish
ed presence, the patriotism that
beamed from the eyes and filed the
hearts of all, combined to render
this the feature of the celebra.
ton. The social features of the oc.
casion were in keeping. Recep.
tons, dinners, ETC.. was given the
President and other distinguished
guests. and there seemed no end to
the lavish hospitality bestowed upon
those entitled to it, while the peo-
pie showed their respect for them in
various ways. The city was bedeck.
ed with flags and other emblems of
holiday attire, and the best of humor
prevailed everywhere. The event
combined celebration and love
feast, and the result cannot be other.
wise than beneficial. The presence
of so maay people and the patriotic
observance prove the respect and
veneration the people have for the
Constitution. May they guard it as
the apple of the eve !-Doylesto,cn
Democrat.
